5.0 out of 5 stars Excellent book on gauge theory, August 26, 2005
This review is from: Classical Theory of Gauge Fields (Hardcover)
This work, which is not so well-known, gives a good
introduction in gauge field theory. Starting from scalar
fields quickly more advanced subjects such as magnetic monopoles, the higgs mechanism and spontaneous symmetry breaking are discussed.
The work contains nice overviews of the mathematics of Lie groups and Lie algebras and has a number of useful exercises.

5.0 out of 5 stars This book is a gem!, July 5, 2005
By 
This review is from: Classical Theory of Gauge Fields (Hardcover)
If you are reading this review you are probably familiar with field theory and learned it in a quantum field theory class or book. If not go ahead and read THIS book, it is a must BEFORE a QFT a class. I wish I had it a few years ago, I would learn QFT much easier. Still it clarified a lot of things and recommended for every theoretical physics student. You will at least recognize what is related to quantum aspects and what is not.
